Property Description
Check out this rare Lancaster City property that has had only two owners! This renovated brick Cape Cod features a large sun porch and sits on nearly a 3/4-acre lot. The property also includes a detached shop, a one-car garage, and an approximately 300-square-foot finished space above the shop that would make a great office, studio, or bonus room. The main floor of the house features an open-concept layout with the kitchen, dining, and living areas, along with a small entryway. The primary bedroom and an additional bedroom are also located on the main floor, as well as a full bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find two more spacious bedrooms and additional storage. The semi-finished basement includes a half bathroom and a laundry room. The home was fully renovated in 2019 with all-new wiring, a 200-amp electrical panel, a new propane burner for the boiler, and radiant floor heating installed kitchen, dining, and living room space. The renovation also included a new kitchen with quartz countertops and a tile backsplash, and the bathroom with a tile tub surround. Finished oak and pine hardwood floors run throughout the home. In 2025, a new heat pump with a whole-house air purifier was installed, providing central air conditioning and a secondary heat source. A driveway leads to the detached one-car garage and shop. The shop is insulated with spray foam in both the walls and ceiling. The finished second floor has been used as an office and offers a flexible space for work or hobbies. The outdoor space features mature landscaping and a variety of fruit trees and bushes, including Asian pears, apples, peaches, figs, cherries, blueberries, and raspberries. All of this is within walking distance of downtown Lancaster and everything Lancaster City has to offer, yet you'll come home to the privacy of off-street parking and a spacious yard.
